Happy Holidays 2012

Charlie Brown Tree

There were many horrific and tragic events that occurred this holiday season. There was Super-storm Sandy, the death of two local high school students from a drunk-driver car accident, and the loss of many innocent lives in Connecticut. It is very easy to get overwhelmed by anger, sadness, loss and grief; it is very easy to forget the good things.

This month, I have many things to be thankful for. My military man came home safely from deployment. We worked hard to get our home ready for the holidays; donated to, and volunteered in various relief programs. I am thankful for the kindness and generosity of my scholars and colleagues. My homeroom created holiday cards for the elderly at a local nursing home. Classes donated winter outerwear and accessories to help keep our city’s homeless and families warm, and tried their best to create snowflakes for Project Snowflake for Sandy Hook. Out of darkness, there is light.

I wish you all peace, happiness, joy and love this holiday season. Make sure to hold your loved ones close, and enjoy your time together. I certainly plan to do just that…
